PHP RS multi selects versus Javascript Array selects
Posted: Mon Feb 02, 2004 11:29 am
Can any one help please?
I have implemented a single page with a form holding 3 dynamic selects pulling data from mysql, ie second select populated from users choice on first select - third select populated from users choice on second select. The data is contries - regions - towns/cities.
It works very well but is SOOOOO slow to load the page, so I thought about using javascript and holding the data in arrays in the hope that it will load considerably quicker. Before i try and write this can anyone tell me if it will be any quicker with javascript? Any advice appreciated.
Thanks
